Roblox tower defense strategy game Anime Last Stand’s new Tournament game mode is here alongside a quality-of-life update that adds a seamless retry feature, bug fixes, and more.
There’s a lot to go over when it comes to this latest update, but its new mode is the centerpiece. Developer Boss Studio says the mode asks players to deal as much damage as possible over a 20-minute period. The team says leaderboards reset every week, confirming that brackets will be added “soon.” With Tournaments also comes a Tournament Shop, which allows players to spend currency called Tournament trophies on items and new units.
Two new units also arrive with the Tournament update – Pirate King (Celestial) and Soul King (Shiny) (Exotic) – as well as seven new Evolutions: Pirate Lord, Fused Warrior (Blue), Idol (Pop-Star), Flame Breather (Demonic), Noble Caption (Blood War), World’s Strongest (Prime), Kon (Rage). Some of the more substantial changes involve new features, such as seamless retry, which allows players to restart stage instantly. Evolving now increases a unit’s stats, too, with a 5% chance to increase stats twice.
As for those quality-of-life changes, rerolling stats has been tweaked to make it harder to accidentally skip a stat you want. Boss Studio says it has also implemented “some lag fixes” while buffing out a number of other bugs.
In other Roblox news, there are a variety of other popular experiences that have received updates big and small in the last few weeks. The recent Fisch Ancient Isles update added new fish, mechanics, and a megalodon event, bringing some of the game’s biggest changes so far. Anime Vanguards Update 1.5, meanwhile, came with additions such as Familiars and new Units when it dropped on November 23.
Anime Last Stand will celebrate its two-year anniversary come March, but there’s no telling how exactly the team at Boss Studio plans to celebrate. Until then, you can see our list of all up-to-date codes here, and check out the full patch notes for the Tournament and Quality-of-Life update below.
